Yhuan's new life after annihilating his village was far from idyllic. He toiled day and night, working tirelessly to ensure his younger sister could grow up safely and happily. The weight of his past actions hung heavily over him, a constant reminder of the darkness he harbored.
One evening, as Yhuan was returning from a long day of labor, he spotted a group of men running hurriedly through the forest, carrying a young girl. The sight triggered painful memories of his own mistreatment, causing him to hesitate.
His sister, who had followed him and witnessed the scene, tugged at his sleeve. "Brother, we have to help her!" she pleaded, her eyes wide with innocence and determination.
Yhuan placed a hand on her shoulder and shook his head. "No, you go back to the house. It's too dangerous."
"But—" she began."Go," Yhuan said firmly. Reluctantly, his sister obeyed, turning back towards their home.Once she was out of sight, Yhuan began trailing the kidnappers to a dilapidated house deep in the woods. He observed from the shadows as the men took a rest on the worn-out sofa, their guard seemingly down.

As night fell, Yhuan crept silently into the house. He approached the girl, who was bound and gagged in a corner. Just as he reached her, one of the kidnappers suddenly kicked her, revealing that he had been pretending to sleep.
"Thought you could sneak in here, huh?" the kidnapper sneered, his laughter echoing through the room.
a swift, desperate move, Yhuan grabbed a knife from a nearby table and hurled it at the kidnapper. The man dodged, but lost his balance in the process. Yhuan seized the opportunity, pouncing on him and repeatedly stabbing the kidnapper until he stopped moving, blood pooling on the floor.
Panting heavily, Yhuan turned to the girl, who stared at him with a mixture of fear and gratitude. He quickly untied her and led her out of the house, his heart pounding from the adrenaline and the realization of what he had done.
As they escaped into the night, Yhuan glanced back at the house, a smirk forming on his lips. He had saved an innocent life, but the cost had been steep. The darkness within him had resurfaced, and he knew it would not be easily quelled.
